If
you've had a week that feels kind of like a pressure cooker set to
explode, you can thank the upcoming Full Moon in Sag this weekend that
has Mars accompanying it.
In
Australia we have those coloured fire ban charts where it's either blue
or green on the lower end, then goes to yellow, orange and red on the
extreme end, culminating in the black striped 'code red' which basically
means get out of there.
The
astro weather forecast for this weekend, which we have already felt all
of this week, is pretty much like the orange-red part of the fire ban
chart, and some of you may be having the joy of having the code red
bells going off.
You all
know that a Full Moon heightens emotions. When Mars gets into the mix,
he adds his energy-fuelled, testosterone-driven, assertive, sometimes
aggressive mojo into that emotional pool. It's all happening in
Sagittarius, who loves nothing more than freedom, independence and
adventure. So what does all this mean?
Energy
right now, within us and around us, will want to be asserting itself
with a cry of "I want to do what I want to do! Don't rein me in! Don't
tell me what to do! I am a free being!" So wherever you have been
feeling repressed around this, or if someone has been trying to lord it
over you, your energy is going to respond with a great big Joan of Arc
"Rooooaaarrrrrhhhhh get out of my way!!!!!!"
It is the energy of the wild horse who refuses to be tamed or controlled.
On
the other side of the coin, ego's will be triggered. Wherever there is
someone saying "You can't control me anymore" there is another seething
with anger who ups the ante with their controlling tendencies.
So
there is a kind of a battle between freedom and control, independence
and domination. Power struggles are in there too, owning our power vs
someone trying to take our power or tell us we have no power. And it's
all coming to a head. And just like a pot with boiling water, if the
heat is on too high the water will spill over which does make a bit of a
mess, but also eases the pressure.
It's
not all anger and ego. Mars is also about inspiration and he loves to
give us an action-oriented booster shoot, saying 'C'mon, when are you
going to stop talking and start walking? When are you going to stop just
dreaming about this idea and start doing something about it?" So this
Raaahhh energy can also play out within our own creative juices, where
we feel 'Enough of the procrastination already!!! I need to get this
happening already!!"
This
energy has been building to a crescendo, peaking on Saturday
night/Sunday morning, at the same time that Mercury Retro has started
slowing down in preparation for going Direct on Monday. I've gotta say, I
do love astro synchronicity. All this pressure builds up, it releases
and abates, and then ahhhhh, Mercury Direct comes along like someone
emerging out of a shower fresh as a daisy, "What a lovely day! What's
for breakfast?" Meanwhile the Full Moon and Mars are at the breakfast
table, eyeballs deep in breakfast dishes, utterly exhausted after
cooking for 7 days straight. They wave down to the gorgeous gourmet
breakfast prepared with plenty of blood, sweat, tears and putting out
fires, and say to Mercury.. "We're off to bed now, wake us in a month."
Mercury thinks "What's their problem??"
Ahhh, life. It goes up and down, it explodes and turns inward, but then you get these glorious little pockets where all is well.
If
you've had an emotional week, it will ease from Sunday onward. Know
that everything is being shaken up so that it can release, and
ultimately clear out anything standing in the way of your freedom and
healthy expression of energy.
Please feel free to share!
How are you all feeling?
